Defib pad placement is important. Positioning the pads correctly can double someone’s chance of survival.

While these two examples appear similar, side A is the correct way to place the pads. The key difference is that the pad on the left hand side of the chest has been placed on the side of the rib cage, closer to the armpit.

Being involved in, or affected by, a traumatic event can affect how we feel mentally and physically. It is important to understand how these incidents may impact on your thoughts, feelings and behaviours and what to do if things don’t get better.

Our website Minding Your Head has information on:

✅ Things that can help after a traumatic event
✅ How to support children after a traumatic event
✅ What signs to watch for if you're struggling
✅ When and where to seek professional help

Whether you’ve been directly affected or are supporting someone who has, you’re not alone. Help is available.

See www.pha.site/traumasupport for information and advice.
